It’s not over when you think it should be! You have successfully responded to an employee’s complaint, even received a No-Cause Determination and dismissal from the EEOC. Congratulations! Then, months later, a new charge is filed for retaliation.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act has created renewed awareness about “whistle blower” protections and special requirements for addressing employee concerns. Almost every new employment law now has anti-retaliation provisions, and a growing number impose personal liability (damages come out of the manager’s own bank account or personal assets). Retaliation cases are harder to defend and may already have been lost by the time they are filed.
This program covers :
- the major retaliation laws and some “minor” ones that can surprise you
- what laws impose personal liability
- Sarbanes-Oxley whistle blower provisions
- anatomy of a retaliation case
- how to guard against retaliation claims
